That's the best post on this site right now. I vote you for M3post spokesperson on the month. WTF with BMW in general. This whole thing is pure bullshit. My dealers gives me code 111, BMWNA before and after speaking to dealer gives me code 111 moved into 112,dealer still says 111.Dealer is supposed to have information before bmwna,so wtf too much bullshit.

So now my car is up to code 152 "paint shop started"...what I find interesting, however, is the production completion date has now moved to Sept. 6. The change from 8/30 to 9/6 doesn't bother me b/c 1 week is not a big deal...I just find it odd that it now was pushed back a week as it goes further through the production cycle.

I called this morning too, and I was moved from a Prod Completion date of 9/6 one day out to 9/7...

Not sure how it slipped a day when they are shut down for almost a month... seems weird they can be this specific right now...

Oh well, the wait continues...

Man, you CA is in for a long stretch until that car arrives!!

Daily updates into Sept, he will earn his commission on this sale...

Nope...not calling my CA...just the BMWNA automated phone line. I'll stop calling after today knowing the plant is shutting down for August. Once September hits, it will be hourly calls to the BMWNA phone system!!!

kscarrol · 07-30-2010, 09:00 AM

Just called BMWNA again and my completion date got bumped back to the 7th as well. It is going to be a long, hot August!

Where are you getting the status code? Are you actually speaking to a rep.? I usually just listen to the computer voice update...

The automated system is not stating the status code...only the description. For example, when I called today it said, "your vehicle is in the paint shop with an estimated completion of Sept. 6."
